Some questions we hear a lot. So much so that we decided to provide some answers.
What is Redpoint?
Is Redpoint part of Florida State University?
No. Redpoint is a privately owned and professionally managed community. Click here for more information about the management and ownership.
Can I live with friends, or can you match me with roommates?
You can select your roommate(s), or you can apply on your own and we can match you with other students. Applicants answer a short list of lifestyle questions to help in the matching process.
What are per-person contracts?
Instead of requiring all roommates to sign a joint lease, each person at Redpoint has their own individual contract, with one person per bedroom. This means you are only responsible for paying for yourself — not your roommates. Even if a roommate moves out or other bedrooms in your apartment are empty, you only pay the rate for your bedroom.
What is included in the rate?
Each resident at Redpoint pays a flat rate that includes:
- High-speed Internet
- Trash disposal
- Washer and dryer in each home
- On-site management
- Community features — pool, fitness center, sports courts, etc.
Are the apartments furnished?
Redpoint offers an optional furniture package which includes a queen-size bed, dresser, bedside table, desk and chair in each bedroom, and a sofa and loveseat, end table, coffee table and entertainment stand in each living room. All furnished residences also include a dining table, chairs and counter stools. To see a sample of the furniture and other finishes, please visit our model residences.
How big are the cottages?
The spacious accommodations at Redpoint range from 2- to 5-bedroom cottages, with a private bathroom for each bedroom. Some residences also include an extra half-bath.
When do the contracts start and end?
The standard term is August 13, 2024 to July 22, 2025, with payments made in 12 equal installments. Other alternate dates may be available; please inquire with our staff.
Is a co-signer or financial guaranty required?
Each resident must pay an administrative fee for each contract year. This fee is reduced significantly if the resident provides a qualifying guarantor (often a parent) for their financial obligations under Housing Agreement.
Can I pay by credit card?
Yes. Residents can pay online 24 hours per day, by credit card or ACH electronic checking. Redpoint also offers automatic payment by either credit card or checking account — just fill out one page, one time and payments will be made automatically. Convenience fees apply for credit card and debit card payments.
Will my financial aid cover charges at Redpoint?
Your living costs at Redpoint can be covered by financial aid, just like on-campus housing. Any available financial aid funds, after university charges are satisfied, are released to the student for non-institutional expenses, such as off-campus housing. These funds can be used to pay charges at Redpoint. Normal payment deadlines will continue to apply.
Is Redpoint open to non-students?
Nearly all the residents at Redpoint Tallahassee are students at Florida State University and the per-person contracts are also designed with students in mind. Residents/families with children are welcome. There is no extra cost for minor children in the care of adult residents, other than regular charges for each bedroom space selected by the resident. A minor occupying a bedroom space rented by a parent, guardian or person with legal custody is not considered a breach of the Housing Agreement or a violation of the rules. Redpoint is an Equal Opportunity housing provider and welcomes applications from non-students. In order to match student roommates in shared apartments, we will request roommate consent for any non-student occupants.
What kind of safety and security are provided?
Redpoint includes a security system in each residence (monitoring not included), electronic locks and individually locking bedroom doors. Community courtesy patrols are provided at select times. Management staff are also on-site and can be reached by a 24-hour phone number.
What are the policies on pets, smoking and guests?
Redpoint is pet-friendly, subject to limits on animals and breeds. The community is smoke-free in all indoor areas. Guests are welcome at all times, subject to the consent of cottage-mates and security considerations. Overnight guests are welcome, with limits on the number of days and guests.
Can I park my vehicle at Redpoint?
Redpoint offers free surface parking for all residents. Limited guest parking is also available at no charge.
What other transportation options will I have?
Redpoint is served by the Seminole Express bus service, on the Osceola route, every ten minutes from 7am to 8pm Monday through Friday when school is in session, along with evening service on the Nite Nole from Tuesday through Saturday, 10:30pm to 3am. The ride to campus takes as little as ten minutes.
Can I see a model apartment?
Yes. Please request an appointment for a personal tour, or just stop by to see us and we’ll be happy to show you the community.
